Roma keen on Toon star

Georginio Wijnaldum is on the wanted list of Italian side AS Roma and the player’s agent has suggested a move could happen.

Newcastle are hoping to keep the majority of their star players despite relegation to the Championship, but departures are inevitable, and Wijnaldum looks the most likely to move on.

There will be no shortage of interested in the Dutchman, and his agent Humphrey Nijman, admits that a move to Serie A with Roma would appeal to his client.

Nothing has been decided as yet, but the midfielder is certainly weighing up his future.

“Wijnaldums situation right now is very simple, Nijman revealed. Newcastle have been relegated to the second division, so now the player has to think about his future.

At the moment I cant say any more, and I cant talk about negotiations. Roma are a great club, one of the best in Europe. How much would he cost? I cant answer that, its the club that decides a players price.
